How have I never heard of the Detroit game?

it’s from the makers of “Heavy Rain” and “Beyond: Two souls”. The player has to play the role of three different humanoid androids throughout the game, and make choices that heavily affect the gameplay. Depending on the choices you make with every character, their story and outcome changes their future paths. It’s a good game, and can be bought quite cheap at sales. The acting is really good IMO.

It’s a choose your own adventure take on the civil rights movement set in the future. Because of course society will have to deal with this shit all over again.

entwine,

It’s incredible, and unique in that nobody else is really making those types of games, and it has AAA-tier production values.

Started playing War Robots again. There's an event with a few perks, so I even got premium for 5 days for free.

Gotta finish Metro Exodus at some point tho.

Lol, at some point I should probably try to get through Metro Exodus as well.

Alas, I don’t like the changes they made to the game between Last Light and Exodus.

But I already bought it and the money isn’t coming back, so might as well hope there’s a good story or something hidden somewhere in the game.

petrescatraian,

Had a friend telling me the same, lol. FWIW, I got into Metro after watching the series of The Linux Gaming Experiment, where Nick played Metro Exodus - so I kinda enjoy Exodus more, lol.

Any time I realize the optimal path is really boring or tedious.

Like, imagine you could sell junk to vendors for money, but for some reason you get more money if you sell them one at a time. Spending five minutes splitting inventory stacks sucks, but it’s 30% more gold and that’s the difference between the cool sword or the basic sword.

A made up example, but hopefully gets the point across.

Related: long travel times with nothing interesting or challenging happening. I remember playing some shitty MMO and you had to like run through a building, go up an elevator, and down a long hallway every time you wanted to learn skills. Just five minutes of nothing. Gotta juice those playtime stats, I guess.

It’s different if there’s stuff to do en route. Monsters to fight or whatever. But when it’s just jogging? Very disappointing.

I paid full price for Dispatch. After looking at the 7 year development cycle I felt like these are the groups that need my patronage (Indies)

That’d be sick! I’m always down to create custom designs if you’re ever interested.

Hi, I sent you a DM, is this something you’re still interested in?

frezik,

Yeah, just need to make some measurements and plan some things around other planned tattoos.

Awesome, that’s great to hear! Reach out anytime you’re ready. I look forward to hearing from you.

RogueBanana,

And then there are games that seamlessly matches your pace and animation with the NPC once you get close to them. cooms

bryndos,

Aah, i think it was tie-fighter, where you could lock on and press a key to match speeds with an enemy - (albeit instantaneous only).
Maybe it was there in x-wing, but i feel like it was one of the minor qol improvements in tie-fighter that made it better.

Rozz,

I think about that surprisingly often. Also how nice would that be in real life too, not just games.

bryndos,

When they have motorway roadworks here there they often have "average speed limit zones". set like 40-60mph. speed camera enforced at start and end.

Everyone just pootles along steadily at very close to 39 or 49mph no overtaking.
It's great.

Doc_Crankenstein,

We have that option for cars to match speed with each other in the same travel lane … It’s called a “train”. We should build more of them.

bjoern_tantau,
@bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de avatar

They ported it over to X-Wing in later versions. Also, play XWVM, if you haven’t already.

ghostlychonk,

I cannot fathom how Bethesda still can’t get this right. It can’t be difficult to just set NPC speed to match player speed.

IronBird,

it just works

Don_alForno,

It’s supposed to guarantee you can always catch up with them.

If it’s under 5€ I might buy and never play it. If it’s over 30€ I will never buy it.

im slow. still ff12. im building based on https://brightrockmedia.com/ff12-job-combos-and-best-jobs-for-each-character/#top-tier-equipment but changed it a bit to get 11 classes (stupid knight makes it hard not to double dip bushi) using this a another reference https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/ps4/191202-final-fantasy-xii-the-zodiac-age/faqs/79681/introduction

I’ve restarted Yakuza Kiwami 2 after dropping it a few years ago, but neither the story/sidequests nor the gameplay don’t feel as good as 0 or Kiwami 1.

Demonschool released a few days ago, so I’ve been playing that. It’s pretty good, I was expecting more of an RPG but it’s actually more like a puzzle game. The writing is charming and the art looks great.

This week I’ve been mostly playing Sound Voltex tho, as I finally got the controller. It took me a while to get used to the actual layout, and I’m still having troubles understanding the lasers’ timing. It feels much more fun with the proper inputs. I’m currently trying level 13 songs and clearing them with a bit of trouble.

Fucking loved reach

ElDuderino96,

Amen to that. Although I did complete RV There Yet with friends tonight.

scottrepreneur,

Actually heard about this game last night lol

ElDuderino96,

It’s worth the $8.

Until Dawn catching strays

AquaTofana,

My eye immediately went to Until Dawn & Detroit: Become Human, and I was like “Wait! Both these are dope!”

I really like Butterfly Effect decision games.

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@pawb.social avatar

I didn’t play Detroit for so long because I expected it to be like most other interactive movie type games where you maybe make 3 total decisions that actually have an effect on the whole story. Checked it out on PS+ and still felt that way up until I finished the first level and it shows the fucking massive decision tree of all the possible choices you could have made in that segment and was blown away. Hella them I didn’t even notice were viable things I could have tried.

This is what these kinds of games should be. It’s fucking amazing. It actually gives replayability to something that, in the past, was more of a one and done deal.

AquaTofana,

Bruh, yes, I know exactly what you mean. I’m actually getting ready to replay D:BH again because the last time I played was about 1.5+ years ago, and I think I’ve finally forgotten all my decisions. My husband said I got one of the best endings he’s ever seen someone get, and I really didn’t want to be tempted to answer everything the same. There’s SO MANY ways that game can go/end, and I want to explore them all!

I made the mistake of playing Until Dawn first, then D:BH, and then I downloaded the Dark Pictures Anthology and played 2 out of the 4 of those. I’m sure those would have hit different had I played them first, but knowing that the ending is ultimately the same no matter which direction you go definitely ruins the replayability. All 4 run into the very issue you were worried about with Detroit.

Definitely not the remake though
